What does the myocardium do?
The myocardium is the thickest layer of the heart made of contractile muscles that pumps blood.
Are there layers of the heart?
The layers of the HEART {outermost-innermost} 1. Epicardium {This is the outer layer is also known as VISCERAL PERICARDIUM and contains fat, which helps to cushion the heart} 2. Myocardium {This middle layer is the thickest layer of the wall and is made primarily of cardiac muscle} Endocardium {This innermost layer is thin and very smooth, and stretches as the heart pumps blood}
Which layer of the heart is made of cardiac muscle?
myocardium
What is the part that made of an inner layer of circular smooth muscle and an outer layer of longitudinal smooth muscle?
It's the heart
Which layer of the heart is made of muscle tissue and pumps the blood through the system?
endocardium
Myocardium is made of?
The myocardium is the middle layer of the walls of the heart, made of cardiac muscle, that contracts to push out blood.
What type of muscles heart mainly made of?
Heart muscles have their own category and are known as "cardiac muscles." The muscle layer of the heart is known as the "myometrium."
What makes up the wall of the heart?
The wall of the heart is made up of three layers: the epicardium (outer layer), the myocardium (middle layer made of muscle tissue), and the endocardium (inner layer lining the chambers of the heart). These layers work together to enable the heart to efficiently pump blood throughout the body.
The layer of the heart responsible for pumping blood is called the?
The layer of the heart responsible for pumping blood is the myocardium. This is the middle layer of the heart made up of cardiac muscle tissue that contracts to push blood through the circulatory system.
What type of muscle is the heart made off?
the heart is made out of a special type of muscle called cardiac muscle
Is the heart made of smooth muscle?
The heart is a muscle so the heart is made of the cardiac muscle.
Why is the heart made mostly of muscle tissue?
The heart IS a muscle.
